3. Significance
Use of Drones in the Construction Industry
• Fast data Collection
• Cost Saving
• Increased Safety
• Improved Communication
4. General Objective:
-Explore the applications of drones through different phases
of life cycle of the construction project.
OBJECTIVE

Specific Objective:
5. OBJECTIVE
Construction Phase
• Drones can be used for safety and health purposes
• Drones can provide real-time measurement of the
volume of materials on site such as soil and
aggregates
• Another use for drones is to track progress on the
construction sites.
Specific Objective:
Post Construction Phase
6. Post Construction phase
The post-construction phase of a construction project
includes all stages happening after the physical
construction ends. During this phase, drones can be
used for different mapping, marketing, monitoring, and
inspecting purposes.
● Drones can be used to map inaccessible and
hazardous areas, especially with their ability to
enter areas and reach certain heights that can be
hard to capture manually or by laser scanners
● Drones can also play a vital role in monitoring and
inspecting structures.
● Another major use-case for drones is post-disaster
reconnaissance. Fires, explosions, and natural
disasters such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes,
tornadoes, and landslides can cause unavoidable
damage to buildings and infrastructure.
